Dear anet can you please stop kittening up wvw. People like it just the way it is right now. When you guys look back at the release of the desert bl map. Was that a great succes? No. But u guys kittened up wvw then and this will be the same. Stop putting pve crap into wvw. We the hardcore wvw players dont play pve. So please stop messing up our content. I know for a fact that lost of players will be leaving the game because of these things. They only game back when its back to normaal.
Gamemode suicide is always on their agenda.
Can we get a champ train in WvW too? Really missing out how WvW is missing more PvE elements.
We already have a champ train… they are called “tower lords” <winky winky>
You’re right god forbid we have to do the PvP element of WvW and just port/run away from other servers to ktrain.

Horrible Idea. Rip all your veterans which are your player base. Working on useless stuff that nobody asked for, thanks anet.

So raids will be 16% harder… Ty for killing my motivation. Just made 6th viper set, so that when i do raid I would be fully geared nope.
Also with the addition of power precision ferocity AND condi damage gear, ty for combining that with viper. It’s a kill to my gear, as that Grievers gear (of what the name is) is new meta… Ty Anet.
So in conclusion: 100% condi duration (clearly meant to be achieved by lots of classes) is killed… ty so much anet. And you think power has just as good food? Power has some things that are really strong for it (like decreased stun duration) wich is useless for most condi. This change is just a overreaction to the current raid status. (and making raids actually worse).
Raids are balanced around 100% condi duration. Nerfing 16% condi duration (8% damage) means raids will take 8% longer/harder to do. Ty so much… Raid are even more elitist now. And guess what power ele will be risen again. ‘LFG lf 7 ele dps slots’. Bad job anet. Power food generally is better. Condi has only condition damage and condi duration.
Wah. Go get your legendary armor or transmute your current like the rest of us. “Raids will be harder” , you finish every boss with +2mins at least left before enrage anyways. Saying one class is above any other one is just how it goes and always has been in balance changes. The meta shifts. These changes are highly necessary for PvP and WvW, shocking there are other games modes that exist huh?
I have to ask, 6 vipers sets why? I could see 3 at most for different armor types. Seems like a bad play on your part and you’re pushing the blame on anet considering not every class benefits from condi builds.

As a native NSP I do know that [TW] is recruiting for their side guild [TWI] on NSP. Their main guild is more of a hardcore fight driven guild where as [TWI] is a more lax guild that can reap the benefits without feeling pressured (since they run together). I’ve seen them post a lot in team-chat and usually win fights unless heavily outnumbered. I’ve followed them a few times public and have gotten a good amount of bags per run.
We call you Total Wipeout lol. Cause y’all get one pushed all the time lol
We took a ten man crew and wiped like 35 of you lol. But I am sure your nice people…
Yeah I saw you guys wipe them a few times this week. I’m just an NSP native I have no affiliation with them besides pug following occasionally. Just thought I’d help out OP and promote our server.

How about separate PvE stats from WvW? Make a boring old ugly base WvW only armor that you can only change the stats of in WvW (like legendary) and allow players to skin it like they currently can. If you leave WvW with this armor it becomes stat-less. That way WvW gets the flexibility of stat changing and major build diversity but keeps the Legendary armor entitlement at bay. Since most people with Legendary armor probably play PvE anyways.
I skimmed this because it was such a long post as a fair warning if I stray.
Basically the game as a whole has too many currencies that will never be used after a certain period aka BoH. The new “reward” system put in place is garbo. Nothing is worth it even for vet/hardcore only WvW players. It’s still better to go into PvE and get 1 set of ascended and stay away forever like its a plague. It has not made me play any more or less for said rewards. I was excited until I realized how costly and inefficient these rewards are. Granted I like the t3 armor and animation but would much rather prefer it as a skin as is what it will be to me when I get there in 700 levels for 2k.
I assume you want 35k gold too right?
Also, dont forget that WvW players no longer have to go to PvE to unlock dungeons skins, ascended trinkets(why a WvW player need ascended gear, considering that was made just for high level fractals?),
I wasn’t going to post until I saw this gold. WvW is probably the most important game mode to consider stat wise with build diversity. Ascended gear allows us to swap stats, gives us armor with the highest stats, and even in cases reset stats or whatnot. Our zerk set cannot suit the play style of every profession like it can in PvE.
Legendary armor or stat selectable armor would most benefit WvW players over the 2% of the PvE players who would actually get it, since that is not the case ascended armor is the next best thing.
As for the topic in general, sure it sucks I may not get as many pips only because I’m a silver legend but gives me incentive to continue to play and pop boosters as I’m almost gold. It’s taken me two years to get to 1275 ish so I have no sympathy for you newer players who just want it handed to you. I cannot even get the t3 armor after two years of playing which sucks but hey its incentive. We’ve played for years upon years with no incentive and rewards so the fact you cannot walk into our realm and acquire shinies like we can in yours is justified.

I love it! Although I am not a WvW player you can bet I will become one in order to get this!
Like a thousand of other scrubs with their pve builds. Queues will be insane….. for some time and if you got the backpack you will leave again I guess. I hope you really will not get the backpack to easy for new players in wvw.
A few years ago i was one of those curious PvE scrubs ^^ Treat them well some of these guys will stay.
I’m hoping it’s locked behind a relatively high rank like 500- 1k ish (and thats still low) for the final tier. PvE has so many exclusive items that WvW’rs do not get, legendary armor being one. Of course there is a huge % of the PvE community that wont get that either. I spend all of my time on a borderlands and I want that to be reflected in our rewards as we have played for years under-rewarded and no PvE player should play for a few weeks/months and obtain a back piece to never return again. If you want it, play and commit time to a game mode seriously, you will be reflected in our ques and locking those who play WvW on a daily basis out so don’t make the journey easy or low reqs.

You missed his point completely. Regardless of win or lose, it’s not a fun fight.
Idk I have fun racking up bags on condi shout groups when they miss all of their aoe attacks and laughing at their pathetic mindless and skill-less meta. I didn’t really miss the point as it has counterplay and I agree that something should be done about the condi, more so a stack cap.
(edited by SgtOVERKILL.4701)
There are many ways to combat the condi/shout meta. Get creative too many guilds follow the meta cheese and fight against the meta. When they fight against a non meta guild they are easy to combat and generally lose because they popped all their shouts and downed one.. time to wait out cd’s and get bombed the hell out of, not to mention their lack of skills and positioning. With that being said it still needs to cap in WvW at 10 -15 – 20 stacks.
Depends your style of play. You sound more roamer to me. Find a small roaming guild of 5 that you’d like to play with. If you want a guild that runs 20 or more deep you could be a support druid, although not a favorite of the community they are actually pretty decent. If you play with a bigger group you may be class bound and given a role depending on the meta. One day you may be glass ele and the other day minstrels.
If someone transferred today, when would they be eligible to start earning rewards when the new system goes live?
You would not be eligible to earn pips until the 9th if you transferred today.

From what I understand, if you move before patch, Tuesday and before tomorrows reset. You will will eligible for rewards next Friday reset. If its after the patch you must wait 3 weeks or full matches (Fri – Fri).
I took a break from wvw and have been getting back into it lately, yes I agree that incentive based on tagging up can and will create a problem, even more off a problem if it significantly increases your pip gain. I can see this being abused large scale. Everyone wants rewards, and they want them now.
Is there going to be a weekly cap on pips like there are on magnetite shards? If there’s a weekly cap and it’s obtainable in a reasonable amount of time spent in wvw, that would help alleviate the issue. Otherwise people will just grind wvw incessantly and many will take every step to forward themselves through tag abuse.
I sure hope there is not a cap, I play gw2 pretty much just for WvW anymore. If I cap at 100 a week with my guild in two raid nights why would I want to play the other 5 days of the week. Seems like it would kill the population more this way.
I’m hoping they do it off unlock because that armor was from ~2 years ago
I am with a guild that hops servers looking for fights against other servers every new pairing. Rewards are now more of an incentive to play than ever, which may give us permanent residence some where. Will this start when the patch drops or will this start from the last time you moved?

Aww cute! Slati had to get his whole guild in here to defend him lul
I had to get nobody to defend me. My good name was being besmirched and the Wolves responded as one would expect from a pack. Wolves stick together!
Insert arfs or howl’s here
You are missing the point of this post, which is,
. Darkhaven is the new future to WvW, we will be the new number 1. .
DARKHAVEN #1
Yeah Slade rules with an iron fist. Verbal abuse and hazing is a real issue in TW. I often times find myself needing therapy after a raid.
Bloomhunger fight is a joke and everything hits you ridiculously hard. It’s not even worth wasting 30+ mins for a clear (if you get one) when you’re reward is minuscule. The whole fight needs to be reworked there is too much running and then you do a burn for 5-10% unless you’re all ranged players. I stood there today thinking wow this is probably the hardest content in the game, harder than any raid boss and for what an agony infusion?(I clear every wing every week so its not over dramatic). Some nights you get lucky and other times its all just frustration and not fun at all. I get making it more advanced than it was previously but atleast make it puggable.
Even Mossman was more fun to fight previously since I’m not just QQ’ing about Bloomy being too hard. Now Mossy is just in a narrow hallway of death, where previously he had a whole area that made it a more unique encounter.
Old swamp was better in every way possible, the other fractal changes were great but this one needs to be reverted.
As the title states I’m looking for an experienced raid group that can clear SV and SP in about an hour or so. As well as the third raid which I still have to learn and watch videos on. I prefer this group to be in the NA time zone so that I can play when I am home from work. I am also wanting this group to be by main raid group that we grow and progress through future wings with because pugging is well.. fun..!
About myself, I play tempest, ps, and rev, starting to gear other classes as well. I am fully geared in at least ascended with over 40+ LI. Some may say that’s low but LI don’t measure experience, only kills and my group disbanded awhile back due to only being raid loggers. I actively play GW2 everyday and have cleared both SV and SP multiple times. The only day that wouldn’t work for me is Fridays at 10est since I play WvW on reset. If you have a guild/group that I can fit into the roster for please contact me in game @ SgtOVERKILL.4701, whisper or mail will work.
Thanks,
Pretty much what Choppy said, why the hell would you make a cross server WvW guild, when you KNEW that anet was going to re-work the links…. That logic…
Easy, we pay for transfers nbd. Farm for a little gold and go on our merry way. World linking not link some worlds.
Thanks anet for ruining WvW for growing guilds and their players with this linking.
Perhaps you’d like them to run every decision past you first? If you can’t grow your guild, it’s not the linking that’s stopping you.
Here’s to good fights, fun times, and (hopefully) more dynamic matchups this time around.
No I’m not saying they should run this past me, but you try commanding and putting in work to grow a guild then come back to me. Half of my players were on the merged server. Maybe for lower tiers its easy to recruit but in some cases and servers it is difficult and small recruitment pool. I am by far not the only one affected by this and to think unmatching t1 servers is going to change the dynamic is a joke. Blackgate will win as they have always done, so +1 for anet thinking that it would change weekly outcomes.

Or put a different way, HoT is about 8 Iced Caramel Macchiatos at Starbucks.
You’re going places with your analogies
I’ve heard the legendary rucksack quite a bit from players and I feel like it is the most fitting for the game mode since a huge portion uses it. Legendary wings would be ridiculous for such a game mode imo.
Although you do have some good proposals can we PLEASE not make WvW any more automated than it has already become. The radars, the upgrades, the everything that made WvW strategic to take higher tier items is gone. Scouting is useless if you have a radar on each tower. Also how do you expect roamers and small guilds to sneak towers away while the enemy blob is defending smc? There are just too many automated and pve elements in a strategic game mode for any group ranging from 5-50. Yes, anet solved the issue of overpowered keep tactivators and cloaking waters but that doesn’t solve the smaller guilds and groups from being able to sneak a t2 or t3 anything from and enemy if they aren’t properly scouting when everything has these ridiculous upgrades.
BG is a server that needs to be challenged to play PPT. Fighting to get to and stay in T1 3 years ago, all of the seasons, and last Summer/Fall when the T1/T2 shakeup happened. That’s when BG plays PPT, and plays it very well. But it’s a game mechanic that a lot of people don’t necessarily care a lot about.
The problem with PPT is how easy it is to manipulate. If PPT were purely based on how well you play in even circumstances, things would be a lot different. But because the easy answer to higher PPT is just more people and not more skill, the ones who want to win at any cost will always take that option. And some people won’t play that way. I won’t ktrain an empty BL when I know the enemy has no force that could respond to me.
I haven’t commanded much lately, but I’m getting back into it. And I plan on doing whatever I can to find fun fights that aren’t accompanied by massive amounts of siege. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t come with PPT, it just means I don’t have fun fighting under 3 ACs with 6 ballistas primed on my head.
If any YB (or JQ) sees a group led by someone with a [UD] tag, feel free to come out and fight me away from your siege. I’ll fight outnumbered and I’ll fight commanders/groups better than me. Open invitation.
You’re the hero BlackGate Deserves
If Anet truly cared reach out the t1 and t2 servers, and ask the WvW Guilds rather than a post where anyone can reply. Most of the replies here are negative and they have every right to be but you know they will see only the positive ones and be like we did a good job, gold star for everyone here! Good job team!
Oh btw when you revert the maps cut the pve bs on each tower/keep. actually the whole map :*

All I have left is 9.5k left of drinking to do. 10k is a bit high imo and 5k is more reasonable but whatever it takes to be the 5% who actually get this item. Prices will hopefully decline to a degree, lets hope.
I really don’t get what all the complaints are about? It’s been the same for three years just because they tied an item to it? Just do the kitten puzzle you’re bound to get it. I ran it 3x in about 10min. This puzzle is easy compared to some in the current game or previous celebrations ex. mad kings clocktower.
That’s way too much for an xpac that’s almost the price of another full game just for the standard. We’re getting like 3 zones… Anet just lost a lot of buyers and hype.
Stop worrying about your ever so precious pve and fix what the real issues are. The stab changes blow and its all been changed for guess what??? Pve… Anet fixes one thing and breaks a minimum of 3. WvW is unplayable due to the new genius idea of fixing something that isn’t broken. Tonight wasn’t just skill lag but lag in general. Glad you’re all pushing out new content and expansions when you can’t even fix what has already been implemented.
Please for the love of god for the people who don’t enjoy pve and like wvw fix the skill lag if you’re going to implement a new stability system. If not, do us all a favor a revert to the way it was if this isn’t going to be fixed for quite some time. Many patches have came out primarily for pve over the past week and that’s not what has to be fixed. If there is a bug in pve just go to a different zone there are only like 30 of them. For no reason should anyone have 3-10sec delay or skill lag at spawn from a 20v20 zerg fight across the map or even right in front of them. Not to mention map blob fights aren’t even bearable anymore. (you win this round JQ)
Sincerely,
WvW players who can’t WvW
